With the cooler weather, I’m spending more time outdoors. If the weather turns drizzly, I’ll be ready with a jacket like this one from Fjällräven.
This hooded jacket is made of a cotton-blend fabric coated in water-resistant protection. The jacket also includes ample pockets inside and out. Wear it on your next hike or jaunt around town.
The Stina Hooded Water-Resistant Jacket is $200 and comes in four colors (some lucky sizes only). It’s available in XXS-XL.

What is everyone up to this weekend? It’s rainy and finally feels like fall here after a miserably hot September, and I just want to cozy up with a book and do all the fall baking. I somehow got an ARC of Curtis Sittenfeld’s forthcoming short story collection… (no idea how, I have like 12 followers on Goodreads, but she’s my favorite author so I’ll take it!). Alas, we have a very packed weekend – on Saturday, kiddo has a soccer game, a parks & rec cooking class and a birthday party, and on Sunday we’re going into the city with my parents to have brunch and go to the zoo.
